B-29 Superfortress Enola Gay 1/144 Diecast Model with "Little Boy" in 1/60 Scale

1:144 Scale Metal Diecast – B-29 Superfortress Enola Gay – Length: 8.25" Wingspan: 11.5” This model represents the B-29 Superfortress named Enola Gay which dropped the atomic bomb "Little Boy" over the Japanese city of Hiroshima during World War II. The landing gear can be modeled in the extended and/or retracted positions. A metal display stand is included and also a 1/60 scale model of the "Little Boy" bomb which can be attached to the display stand. The maker of the model really did a good job with the model, the panel lines and details are very crisp and one can see the little dots that represent the rivets holding down the panels. This is really a "no-play" model or a "display-only" model. It is mostly metal and very heavy. It also has a number of antennas which look great but are very fragile. If you have small kids that like to play with your models, save yourself some frustration (and money) and wait till later to get a model like this one. The box is labeled as not suitable for children under 14. The package measures 13" x 10" x 3"
